Today I was able to run BCMS thru a ssh tunnel, while at work. Man, I thought I was accessing it from our new PLDT DSL account to our old Bayantel DSL account! I was very ecstatic!

Unfortunately, it was short-lived joy.

I tried opening up ssh on my gateway/firewall to my home DSL IP and to my new DSL account, to no avail.

I was able to login to a bash shell from home ONCE, though. Unfortunately, I didn't save the tunnel and I didn't know I could set one up on the fly, so I wasn't able to test mysql-front.

After a few more hours of trying to get back in, to no avail, I have given up.

I'll continue "the fight" tomorrow.
